Dodgeball is a spunky, playful pup who’s always ready for a game of chase or a romp around the yard with his doggy friends. He’s a social butterfly with other dogs and already potty-trained, the total package! Dodgeball came into foster care after a rough start to life, but you’d never know it from his joyful spirit. He had some old scars and healing spots, but he’s healing beautifully and hasn’t let his past slow him down one bit. This little guy has plenty of energy and would love an active family who enjoys walks, playtime, and snuggles after a day of fun. Dodgeball has so much love to give and he’s ready to find his forever home and start the best chapter of his life!

Sprout

Jack Russell Terrier

Female, Adult

Normal, IL

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Meet Sprout, a 3-year-old Jack Russell Terrier mix who weighs 18 pounds. She’s a friendly, adaptable little dog who warms up quickly once she feels safe and loves being close to her person. Sprout is house trained, does very well in a crate, and sleeps either crated in another room or occasionally in her foster’s bed. She enjoys spending time in the yard, likes car rides, loves sitting in your lap, and will happily follow you around the house. Sprout has gotten along well with dogs of all sizes and has shown no interest in the resident cat. She hasn’t been around children, and because she can be nervous at first, she would do best in a home without small kids. Sprout is food motivated and should be fed separately from other dogs to keep mealtime stress-free. She has some mild separation anxiety and may bark when crated or gated away from her person, but overall she’s a happy girl who settles well once she understands the routine. Sprout will thrive in a calm home that gives her patience, reassurance, and a chance to continue building confidence. She’s a loving little companion ready to find a place where she can truly belong. Her minimum adoption fee is $300 plus a $15 fee, if 4 months or older, for rabies registration for McLean County residents. She has been spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.

Annie

Jack Russell Terrier

Female, 9 yrs 9 mos

Normal, IL

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

This is what her Foster to has to say about Annie: Annie is a fun, intelligent dog that would do well in agility classes as she is smart, strong, and fast. Annie is easy to take care of; she keeps her kennel clean. Annie doesn't potty on the floor as long as you take her out regularly. Annie gets along with other dogs and will race them to see who can sit on your lap first. Annie is affectionate and loving and gets along well with my 3-year-old grandson. I don't have any cats to see how she is with them. Annie loves her squeaky toys and is very playful. She is an expert at fetch and brings it directly back to you. She walks great on a leash. I wouldn’t say she’d be great at the agility course (in current profile) just yet as she trips going up my stairs sometimes. She loves her people and wants to be by your side as much as possible. She listens very well. She sleeps with me and two other dogs and does great. She loves being outside as much as by your side on the couch. Overall, Annie is a fun little dog!
